Sometimes you see TrailerTowns and think, “This’ll be pretty good, I want to see this,” and then other times, you see a TrailerTown like this one for The Sisters Brothers and you think “Holy buffalo testicles! This looks like it’ll be my new favorite movie!!!! I must see this and will punch babies and gerbils to get to the theater!!”. That’s how we felt after watching…
Intro paragraph: this is where we’ll make a quick, snarky comment that slightly relates to the topic of meta movies and probably try to work in a Deadpool reference [definitely work in a Deadpool reference, maybe two]. The next sentence lets the readers know that this episode is about the Top 5 Meta Movies of all time. The last sentence should probably make fun of Q, or something, and then end…
Lars von Trier is not for everyone, and if the TrailerTown for his upcoming film The House That Jack Built tells us anything, it’s that if you don’t like earlier von Trier movies, you probably won’t like this. That works well for us (well, J at least) because we really like Lars von Trier movies. Lars von Trier is known for pushing buttons and the boundaries of…
It’s the event of the summer, that on-screen blockbuster you’ve been waiting for. All your favorite people are in it and you just can’t wait for Thursday night so you can see the next installment of your favorite story adaptation. You guessed it, we’re talking about TV Mini-Series this week! Wait….what did you think? That comic book-y thing? Nerd. Q and J share memories of…
We are Stephen King fans here at High Five: The Podcast, so when we heard that Hulu (the network behind The Handmaid’s Tale) was working with J.J. Abrams to bring a shared Stephen King universe show to life set in Castle Rock, we nearly lost our shit. We’ve been waiting patiently for deeper looks and reading all the articles, but now we officially have a release…
This is, without a doubt, the most influential and important podcast episode that has been recorded in the history of ever. We don’t mean to sound hyperbolic, but seriously, we can’t hype this episode enough. J & Q start talking in extremes as they explore how and why movies get overhyped and what that means for viewers. We dive into how movie trailers have changed…
What are you most afraid of? For many, Friday the 13th is a night of terror and mischief. For others, it’s a time to get your naughty on in some secluded woods. And still, for others, it’s a time to come back from the dead, don a hockey mask (or burlap sack with one eye-hole) and murder some horny teens. Whatever your recreational preference for…
Q and J embrace their inner children this week while discussing the Best Children’s Book Movie Adaptations. It’s not as weird as it sounds, we just mean that this week we languish in conversation about cigar-smoking dogs, cartoon hookers, and Peter Rabbit nutting all over General Hux, you know, the normal stuff you talk about when the topic of children’s book movie adaptations comes up….
It’s a new dawn, it’s a new day, it’s a new podcast for us, and we’re feelin’ good! Well, not really a new podcast, we’re still talking movies and TV. We’re still ranking our favorites, and we’re 100% still going to spoil rotten movies. To kick off our rebirth, we’re heading into the future to hang out with John Boyega and Scott Eastwood (Really? Scott…
Did someone say reboot? No? Ok , well then never mind. Don’t call it a comeback, we’ve been here for years. Q & J are pulling from the past AND the present to finally decide the Top 5 Remakes/Reboots in cinematic history. And this time it’s personal, because upright apes might actually bring an end to a friendship, unless the caped crusader can save the…
